necessary. "restrict default" statements always apply to both address

So this change just tidies up our default config by removing the redundant

fget_cap() tries to do a cheaper snapshot of a file descriptor without
holding the file descriptor lock. This snapshot does not do a deep
copy of the ioctls capability array, but instead uses a different
return value to inform the caller to retry the copy with the lock
held. However, filecaps_copy() was returning 1 to indicate that a
retry was required, and fget_cap() was checking for 0 (actually
'!filecaps_copy()'). As a result, fget_cap() did not do a deep copy
of the ioctls array and just reused the original pointer. This cause
multiple file descriptor entries to think they owned the same pointer
and eventually resulted in duplicate frees.
The only code path that I'm aware of that triggers this is to create a
listen socket that has a restricted list of ioctls and then call
accept() which calls fget_cap() with a valid filecaps structure from
getsock_cap().
To fix, change the return value of filecaps_copy() to return true if
it succeeds in copying the caps and false if it fails because the lock
is required. I find this more intuitive than fixing the caller in
this case. While here, change the return type from 'int' to 'bool'.
Finally, make filecaps_copy() more robust in the failure case by not
copying any of the source filecaps structure over. This avoids the
possibility of leaking a pointer into a structure if a similar future
caller doesn't properly handle the return value from filecaps_copy()
at the expense of one more branch.
I also added a test case that panics before this change and now passes.

It supports setting a log ID on a TCP connection and using this to correlate
multiple connections that share a common log ID.
You can log connections in different modes. If you are doing a coordinated
test with a particular connection, you may tell the system to put it in
mode 4 (continuous dump). Or, if you just want to monitor for errors, you
can put it in mode 1 (ring buffer) and dump all the ring buffers associated
with the connection ID when we receive an error signal for that connection
ID. You can set a default mode that will be applied to a particular ratio
of incoming connections. You can also manually set a mode using a socket

libregex is a regex(3) implementation intended to feature GNU extensions and
any other non-POSIX compliant extensions that are deemed worthy.
These extensions are separated out into a separate library for the sake of
not cluttering up libc further with them as well as not deteriorating the
speed (or lack thereof) of the libc implementation.
libregex is implemented as a build of the libc implementation with LIBREGEX
defined to distinguish this from a libc build. The reasons for
implementation like this are two-fold:
1.) Maintenance- This reduces the overhead induced by adding yet another
regex implementation to base.
2.) Ease of use- Flipping on GNU extensions will be as simple as linking
against libregex, and POSIX-compliant compilations can be guaranteed with a
REG_POSIX cflag that should be ignored by libc/regex and disables extensions
in libregex. It is also easier to keep REG_POSIX sane and POSIX pure when
implemented in this fashion.

Inputting fractional non-decimal numbers has never worked correctly in our
OpenBSD-derived dc(1). It truncates the input to a number of decimal places
equal to the number of hexadecimal (or whatever base) places given on the
input. That's unacceptable, because many numbers require more precision to
represent in base 10 than in their original bases.
Fix this bug by using as many decimal places as needed to represent the
input, up to the maximum of the global scale factor.
This has one mildly surprising side effect: the scale of a number entered in
non-decimal mode will no longer necessarily equal the number of hexadecimal
(or whatever base) places given on the input. I think that's an acceptable
behavior change, given that inputting fractional non-decimal numbers never
worked in the first place, and the man page doesn't specify whether trailing

This is useful on systems with large amounts of RAM, which require a

faster since fewer bytes need to be copied from the dump device.
Because we have no way of knowing the final size of a compressed dump

compression is configured, regardless of the dump device size. If the
dump is aborted because we run out of space, an error is reported on

Existing scripts and associated config such as rc.initdiskless, rc.d/var,
and others, use mdmfs to create memory filesystems. That program accepts a
size argument which allows SI suffixes and treats an unsuffixed number as a
count of 512 byte sectors. That makes it difficult to convert existing
scripts to use tmpfs instead of mdmfs, because tmpfs treats unsuffixed
numbers as a count of bytes. The script logic to deal with existing user
config that might include suffixed and unsuffixed numbers is... unpleasant.
Also, there is no g'tee that tmpfs will be available. It is sometimes
configured out of small-resource embedded systems to save memory and flash
storage space.
These changes enhance mdmfs(8) so that it accepts two new values for the
'md-device' arg: 'tmpfs' and 'auto'. With tmpfs, the program always uses
tmpfs(5) (and fails if it's not available). With 'auto' the program prefers
tmpfs, but falls back to using md(4) if tmpfs isn't available. It also
handles the -s <size> argument so that the mdconfig interpetation of
unsuffixed numbers applies when tmpfs is used as well, so that existing user
config keeps working after a switch to tmpfs.
A new rc setting, mfs_type, is added to etc/defaults/rc.conf to let users
force the use of tmpfs or md; the default value is "auto".

In base, locales (and encoding) specific directories are not used
by any tool. Just remove them.
While here also remove the cat page directory for openssl
in favor of just rendering the manpage instead of relying on pre-formatted
catpages. Note, this does not impede the ability to use existing catpages,
it just removes the utility to generate them.

Add basic command line parsing test coverage for these utilities. The tests
were automatically generated based on their man pages. These tests can be
expanded by hand for more thorough coverage. The aim is to generate very
basic amount of test coverage for all the utilities in the base system.

/etc/{group,master.passwd}. This was originally turned on for all of
/etc/{aliases,group,master.passwd} in r55196, but then backed out
only for the latter two in r56697, as the adaption of the sed(1)ing
done in r56308 was incorrect. This left us with inconsistent diff(1)
formats in the daily output of periodic(8) ever since, despite in
r56697 having been promised to be revisited. So properly adapt the
password hash filtering to the unified format and turn the later on
again for /etc/{group,master.passwd}, too.
r322277 moved rwho* and ruptime out of the MK_RCMDS conditional including
updating the obsolete files entries to not remove these scripts due to
WITHOUT_RCMDS=yes. However, the initial installation was still conditional
on MK_RCMDS, so new installs did not include these scripts and upgrades via
mergemaster or etcupdate removed them.

How network VF works with hn(4) on Hyper-V in non-transparent mode:
- Each network VF has a cooresponding hn(4).
- The network VF and the it's cooresponding hn(4) have the same hardware
address.
- Once the network VF is up, e.g. ifconfig VF up:
o All of the transmission should go through the network VF.
o Most of the reception goes through the network VF.
o Small amount of reception may go through the cooresponding hn(4).
This reception will happen, even if the the cooresponding hn(4) is
down. The cooresponding hn(4) will change the reception interface
to the network VF, so that network layer and application layer will
be tricked into thinking that these packets were received by the
network VF.
o The cooresponding hn(4) pretends the physical link is down.
- Once the network VF is down or detached:
o All of the transmission should go through the cooresponding hn(4).
o All of the reception goes through the cooresponding hn(4).
o The cooresponding hn(4) fallbacks to the original physical link
detection logic.
All these features are mainly used to help live migration, during which
the network VF will be detached, while the network communication to the
VM must not be cut off. In order to reach this level of live migration
transparency, we use failover mode lagg(4) with the network VF and the
cooresponding hn(4) attached to it.
To ease user configuration for both network VF and non-network VF, the
lagg(4) will be created by the following rules, and the configuration
of the cooresponding hn(4) will be applied to the lagg(4) automatically.

Given that RFC7530 allows uid/gids to be placed in owner/owner_group
strings directly, many NFSv4 environments don't need the nfsuserd.
This small patch modified /etc/rc.d/nfsd so that it does not force
startup of the nfsuserd daemon unless nfs_server_managegids is enabled.
This implies that nfsuserd_enable="YES" must be added to /etc/rc.conf
for NFSv4 server environments that use Kerberos mounts or clients that
do not support the uid/gid in string capability.
Since this could be considered a POLA violation, it will not be MFC'd.

r279248 unconditionally installed BSD.debug.dist for ease-of-developer-use.
Restore the previous behavior.
While here, add a comment to note that this is intentional to avoid accidental
future removal.
